Modern cruise ships look gigantic even from the shore, but their true scale is revealed only when viewed from above. New York photographer Jeffrey Milstein gives us a unique opportunity to look at these amazing floating whoppers from a bird's-eye view.

In his mesmerizing photographs, Milstein was able to capture every detail of the giant liners: water slides, golf courses, dance floors, basketball courts and infinitely diverse pools.

Milstein's photographs are so clear and detailed that if you look at them in full resolution of 80 megapixels, you can see every detail on the decks: passengers lounging on deck chairs, water slides, a golf course, dance floors, basketball courts and swimming pools of various shapes and sizes.

Most of these photos were taken in Florida, near the Port of Canaveral, where many passenger cruise ships dock every year. Milstein also photographed ships in Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
